LEARN MORE ABOUT TRAUMA INFORMED PRACTICES

Meet Emma Wilson: Coaching Occupational Therapist

As a HCPC registered Occupational Therapist with almost 2 decades of experience working in mental health services I have witnessed first hand the disabling impact of trauma. My work in Somatic, Trauma-Informed Coaching has led to a profound revelation: the transformational power of unveiling trauma's hidden wounds and mastering the art of nervous system regulation.

My mission is to share  this knowledge, creating safer, more compassionate spaces where individuals and communities can heal and thrive. I work in a trauma-informed way, utilising a variety of approaches including coaching skills, Motivational Interviewing, and Neuro-Linguistic Programming. Informed by my own neurodivergent experiences I am able to understand and empathise with a variety of challenges when supporting individuals to identify & achieve their personal goals.

Through my partnership with The Mental Wellbeing Company, I'm committed to bringing together trauma-informed practices and positive psychology to make them accessible to all. As a Certified Coach through The Mental Wellbeing Company, I’ve completed the ICF and CPD accredited Somatic Trauma Informed Coaching Certification. I am a part of the Trauma Informed Professional Network, which is the fastest-growing community of trauma-informed professionals in the world and I am a member of the International Coaching Federation & the ADHD Coaches Organization. This high-level certification has equipped me with the knowledge and skills to deliver transformative workshops and 1:1 coaching sessions that prioritise the mental health and wellbeing of your team, your students, or yourself.
